Fangoria has announced the full list of nominees for 2024's Fangoria Chainsaw Awards. Voting is now officially open with the nominees revealed, and horror fans are encouraged to select their favorites for each category, ranging from TV and movies to the best genre video game.

Like previously, this year's Fangoria Chainsaw Awards will be streaming on Shudder. The nominees come at a time when the horror genre is back on the rise, and there's a mix of contenders from psychological thrillers to more supernatural stories. Also announced is that this year will see the award show's airing shifted to October, but this will make the window for eligibility extended --- now acknowledging releases from all of 2023 along with the first half of 2024.

“Though the Fangoria Chainsaw Awards have been around for over 30 years, our current age of horror has delivered a high volume of next-level entertainment the likes of which fans have never seen,” Fangoria Editor-in-Chief Phil Nobile Jr. said in a statement. “Fans will have their work cut out for them, as choosing the best of the best from this genre has truly never been more difficult – or more fun.”

Voting can be done at Fangoria.com/vote, and it's better to act soon, as polling will close on July 20, 2024. Along with the various nominations that are available for fans to pick as the best option, there will be an additional "Best Kill" category that will be a write-in vote.
